Just sayin that a sub should get wet. Dont care. And dont care if it gets scratched. Just dont care. Subs need water.

But is it safe to wear a DSSD in the shower?

I have had AD tell me that i cant wear a sea dweller in the shower. LOL LOL

SFBAY · 14 September 2020, 06:58 AM

I wear my Rolex watches in the shower daily. Others don’t?

BOA · 14 September 2020, 06:59 AM

Just means you have to clean it more often as the soap imparts more scum under the clasp and in the links than the water washes away. Just my experience, so I take mine off before I shower now. YMMV :)

This.

I have a 1967 date with a most recent Rolex overhaul of 2010 that makes regular dips in the tub and splashes in the shower. These bad boys are literally designed to lay next to actual oysters and run perpetually.

Right on. I swim with mine!

Diversd · 14 September 2020, 07:05 AM

I personally don’t. I dive with mine so I treat it like I would all my other gear. I would never expose my camera rig, dive computer or anything with a rubber gasket to hot water or steam. I’d be afraid of swelling and cracking. Probably overkill, but not worth the risk for me.

I believe you, and thank you for not posting picture. :D

And yes, I shower with my watches and dry them with towels, thats how I get them clean.

polaris72 · 14 September 2020, 07:46 AM

You got to be kidding me...

Burlington · 14 September 2020, 07:55 AM

Isn’t it a dive watch, not a shower watch ?

Okay but it doesn't need your shampoo, body wash, face wash and everything else with water! Also more than watch getting scratched, there's a chance you'll scratch yourself with your watch while moving your hands over your body!

Old Farmer · 14 September 2020, 08:18 AM

I never take muy Sub off, I cant remember the last time other than when it was sent away to RSC for a service.

Next you will be saying you wear it on your wiping hand. Madman!

supernova · 14 September 2020, 09:02 AM

I wore my GMT2C continuously for 8 years, probably taken off once every 3 months for quick clean.

Went through sea, showers, sleeps, kart racing, climbing, deserts, snow, water sports, saunas, steam rooms and much more. Went for RSC service and ready for another 8-10 years of fun. And that's not even a Sub!

Rebel · 14 September 2020, 09:19 AM

Ok.

brandrea · 14 September 2020, 09:22 AM

I don’t like to shower wearing a watch, not because I’m afraid to get it wet, I just prefer to wash myself and the watch separately... call me crazy

In the shower?

What do you use for soap?!

All my watches get the occasional go in the shower, with the bracelets loosened off if possible. Sometimes they need it. Sometimes they don't. It never hurts.

watchmainspring · 14 September 2020, 09:28 AM

Oh no it's ruined.

Leemichael · 14 September 2020, 09:35 AM

Yes, I almost despise people that buy Subs and don't even wear them!
